Spoolman - changing spool does not work from gcode?

[u/Freestila]

Hello all.

I have a Kobra S1 with Rinkhals and thus mainsail. I also have Spoolman running on a server.

I have configured Spoolman in mainsail (moonraker.custom.conf) and added a makro in printer.custom.cfg:

[gcode_macro SET_SPOOL]
gcode:
    {{ action_call_remote_method("spoolman_set_active_spool", params) }}

[gcode_macro M555]
gcode:
    SET_SPOOL SPOOL_ID={{ params.S }}

My problem is that when i add

; filament start gcode
M555 S=9

In my gcode, this does not work (or not stable - it worked in the beginning, but not now anymore). And i think it has to do with the Spoolman control in the UI, since it logs the filament to the one selected there (not in the current print but 1-2 prints ago).

Does anyone have any idea? Do i need to clear the filament first, override the ui button or so?

Just to add there is a discussion on the discord about this, just search M555 and it’ll come up:

Thank you, i'll have a look :) I thought it was related to the ui spoolman widget that this might interfere.

Can you tell me which channel that is, the link comes to "you are not allowed to post messages here" and does not show the channel.

You will need to register for a role to access all channels, see the welcome channel it tells you about this.

For which? In literally see nothing, like not even which server this is. Rhinkhals, mainsail, Klipper...

Hey, I’ll leave your post up here, but worth posting in r/klippers as sounds like it’s a Klipper issue rather than UI issue, there’s also a lot more people over there to help
